Project Name
The Edward St. John Real Estate and Infrastructure Program

Location
Baltimore, Maryland

Impact
The Master of Science program provides graduate students with the opportunity to develop skills in connection with real estate development and affords them a strong base to bring fresh, innovative approaches to the field of real estate development.

In addition, funding was contributed to name the Edward St. John Board Room to provide a professional location for meetings and activities.

Edward St. John feels strongly that in order to be successful and to remain competitive, real estate professionals must understand the issues and concepts associated with planning, design, land development, finance, investment, management, and construction. When the decision was made to develop a comprehensive and multidisciplinary academic graduate program in real estate development studies at the Johns Hopkins University, Mr. St. John agreed to provide support. Instituted within the Johns Hopkins Carey Business School, the Edward St. John Real Estate and Infrastructure Program is unique in that it is one of the very few real estate programs of its kind that is part of a business school. The program was initially established as a full-time MBA program. The part-time program was added to provide employed individuals with the flexibility to achieve their master’s degree while working.

“I was really impressed with the caliber of the students and their different professional backgrounds. The students all bring their experience into the classroom, and it heightens the classroom discussion.”

Greg Koory, Alumnus, MS Real Estate

“I chose Johns Hopkins for the concentration in real estate. It’s very well known in the field as being an excellent real estate education.”
